A new Porsche 911 GT3 RS in Guards Red has hit Ho Chi Minh City, priced at VND 17.7 billion (≈$750k). Discover specs, options, and how to claim yours today.
The latest Porsche 911 GT3 RS, fresh from the 2022 launch, has turned heads in Ho Chi Minh City, sporting the brand’s iconic Guards Red paint. This marks the third 911 GT3 RS to cruise Vietnam’s streets, joining a black and two white examples already registered.
Striking Design Inspired by Track Legends
Built on the 992.1 platform, the new 911 GT3 RS blends a wider body with aggressive cuts, echoing the classic 911 GT3 R and 911 RSR race cars. The front luggage compartment is replaced by a high‑performance cooling system borrowed from Porsche’s motorsport arsenal.
Lightweight Wheels and Aerodynamics
The car rolls on ultra‑light GT3 RS alloy wheels—20‑inch up front and 21‑inch at the rear. Buyers can choose from Pyro Red, Satin Black or Indigo Blue finishes for an additional VND 40 million. The front splitter, rear diffuser and a patented active rear wing generate up to 409 kg of downforce at 200 km/h, climbing to 860 kg at 285 km/h.
Powertrain and Performance
Under the hood sits a naturally‑aspirated 4.0‑liter flat‑six boxer engine delivering 525 hp and 465 Nm of torque, paired with a seven‑speed PDK gearbox and rear‑wheel drive. The 0‑100 km/h sprint is clocked at 3.2 seconds, with a top speed of 296 km/h. In 2022 the model conquered the Nürburgring Nordschleife in 6 minutes 44.848 seconds, making it the third quickest production car of its time.
Interior and Technology
The cockpit features carbon‑fiber bucket seats as standard, with an optional 18‑position Adaptive Sports seat for ultimate ergonomics. A steering wheel equipped with rotary switches controls drive mode, electronic balance, and traction management. The active aero system works like an F1‑style DRS, adjusting rear wing angle electrically on demand.
Pricing, Options and Availability
In Vietnam the base price starts at VND 17.69 billion (about US$750,000). Adding the Weissach Package—a carbon‑fiber‑rich upgrade costing roughly VND 2.7 billion—pushes the total well past VND 20 billion. To date, at least four 911 GT3 RS units have been imported: one black, two white and the newly‑arrived Guards Red.
What’s Next for Porsche Enthusiasts?
With its race‑derived technology, striking aesthetics, and limited‑edition status, the Porsche 911 GT3 RS continues to fuel the supercar craze in Vietnam. Prospective owners are urged to contact authorized Porsche dealers quickly, as the model’s scarcity and high demand are likely to keep waiting lists full.
